Reiko Kujo is [[Eri Kisaki]]'s beautiful and strong-willed rival in those courtroom battles where the two meet on opposing sides. She is a well known professional lawyer who has gathered a reputation as a successful, independent, feared and respected female prosecuting attorney in the [[Wikipedia: Tokyo District Court|Tokyo District Court]], Criminal Division, Third courtroom, and, as a result of such, the nickname {{nihongo|'''Madonna of Prosecutors'''|検察のマドンナ|Kensatsu no Madon'na}}. She lives alone in an apartment and, during her break, trains in a sport center with a tapis roulant.

Some years ago, she began her legal activity in the S.I.D. (Special Investigation Department), first division of the police headquarters for handling hostage situations such as kidnappings or hijackings. Five years ago, her head Takeshi Nezu, of whom she was clearly in love but not reciprocated, was the primary prosecutor in a case which started as an investigation into the Takeuchi Construction Company scandal, over some defective townhouse construction work, but they began to suspect it involved bribery on a political level and joined forces. But then the key deponent of their case, the construction design office's manager, who was actually Hiroaki Takeuchi's head, committed suicide and turned the case into a maze. They could have resolved the case on his testimony, but he suddenly changed his story entirely, which caused her to have no choice but to cease the prosecution. And then, Hiroaki married into Takeuchi Construction and became a key figure in the company. Replaced by Kenzo Katsuragi, her head ended up being reassigned elsewhere, in Tottori, with his wife Kayoko and their only child son, where he died two years later, on November 27th.

Reiko Kujo is [[Eri Kisaki|Eri]]'s beautiful and strong-willed rival in those courtroom battles where the two meet on opposing sides. She is a well known professional lawyer who has gathered a reputation as a successful, independent, feared and respected female prosecuting attorney in the [[Wikipedia: Tokyo District Court|Tokyo District Court]], Criminal Division, Third courtroom, and, as a result of such, the nickname {{nihongo|"Madonna of Prosecutors"|検察のマドンナ|Kensatsu no Madon'na}}. Her law office is in a building near the east sidewalk of the Imperial Palace Babasaki moat. She lives alone in an apartment and, during her break, trains in a sport center with a tapis roulant.
  
Kujo first met Kisaki when the latter took up the defense of Shinji Usami, who was being accused of the murder of Tsuyoshi Hirasawa, who slew Usami's young son Masaki by thoughtlessness. She became determined to beat Kisaki's winning streak and thus further her reputation by defeating the one defender who had never lost a case. However, it turned out that while Usami was involved in the crime in question, he was actually providing a cover for the true culprit, his ex-wife Masako Kameda, who was subsequently exposed and arrested.

She became the substitute prosecutor of the [[Wikipedia: Public Prosecutors Office (Japan)|Tokyo Public Prosecutors Office]], working under Takeshi Nezu, her love interest not reciprocated. Five years ago, her superior was the primary prosecutor in a case which started as an investigation into a construction company scandal, over some defective townhouse construction work, but they be to suspect it involved bribery on a political level and joined forces with the [[wikipedia:ja:特別捜査部|S.I.D.]] (Special Investigation Department). But then the key deponent of their case, the construction design office's manager, committed suicide and turned the case into a maze. They could have resolved the case on an employee's testimony, but he suddenly changed his story entirely, which caused her to have no choice but to cease the prosecution. She sadly replaced her superior as the chief prosecutor, who ended up being happily reassigned elsewhere, in Tottori, in the form of taking responsibility, along with his wife Kayoko and their only child, where he died two years later, on November 27th, and was buried here.
[[File:KujoSasaki.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Kujo and Sasaki.]]
 
Despite this defeat, with the help of [[Sasaki]], her subordinate and the substitute prosecutor, Kujo vowed to humble Kisaki whenever a chance would present itself. However, she was always foiled by [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s brilliance as a detective. In addition, a useful side effect of the confrontations between Kujo and Kisaki was that the latter's separated husband, [[Kogoro Mouri]], would prepare to jump to his wife's defense in whatever way he could, even to the point of testifying as a witness in court.
 
[[File:EP606-Reiko.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Kujo notes Conan's intuition.]]
 
Unlike [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], Conan proves to know her very well at their first meeting. She should note that Conan has a keen sense of observation, telling him it during a check out on the crime scene for their next trial. But as always, Kogoro contradicts her, because for his ignorance all he observed were useless things, and their conversation is interrupted by a witness.
 
  
It's very clear that Sasaki, who is also very similar to her former head, loves her. However, it's still unknown if she reciprocates his feelings.

Kujo is rather rash and eager to proclaim a defendant's guilt even with scant evidence at hand. Whether this stems from her personal drive to defeat Kisaki or from her profession is as yet unrevealed. The first time they meet the two women know each other by reputation. Whenever a case brings them together as opponents in the courtroom, Eri Kisaki and Reiko Kujo deal with each other on a strictly professional basis despite their intense rivalry. Each of them respects the other for her skills, however, and whenever a case turns against her, Kujo is fair enough to accept defeat and bring the true culprit to justice. Although some of these actions are dubious especially in the court, she remains professional and her relationship with Eri is cordial.

Reiko Kujo (九条 玲子 Kujō Reiko?) is a character in the anime franchise Detective Conan.

Background

Reiko and Takeshi youngers.
Reiko notes Conan's intuition.

Reiko Kujo is Eri's beautiful and strong-willed rival in those courtroom battles where the two meet on opposing sides. She is a well known professional lawyer who has gathered a reputation as a successful, independent, feared and respected female prosecuting attorney in the Tokyo District Court, Criminal Division, Third courtroom, and, as a result of such, the nickname "Madonna of Prosecutors" (検察のマドンナ Kensatsu no Madon'na?). Her law office is in a building near the east sidewalk of the Imperial Palace Babasaki moat. She lives alone in an apartment and, during her break, trains in a sport center with a tapis roulant.

She became the substitute prosecutor of the Tokyo Public Prosecutors Office, working under Takeshi Nezu, her love interest not reciprocated. Five years ago, her superior was the primary prosecutor in a case which started as an investigation into a construction company scandal, over some defective townhouse construction work, but they be to suspect it involved bribery on a political level and joined forces with the S.I.D. (Special Investigation Department). But then the key deponent of their case, the construction design office's manager, committed suicide and turned the case into a maze. They could have resolved the case on an employee's testimony, but he suddenly changed his story entirely, which caused her to have no choice but to cease the prosecution. She sadly replaced her superior as the chief prosecutor, who ended up being happily reassigned elsewhere, in Tottori, in the form of taking responsibility, along with his wife Kayoko and their only child, where he died two years later, on November 27th, and was buried here.

She first met Eri when the latter took up the defense of a murder suspect. She became determined to beat Eri's winning streak and thus further her reputation by defeating the one defender who had never lost a case. However, she was defeated. Despite this defeat, with the help of Sasaki, her right-handed man and the substitute prosecutor, she vowed to humble Eri whenever a chance would present itself. However, she was always foiled by Conan's brilliance as a detective. In addition, a useful side effect of the confrontations between she and Eri was that Kogoro, the latter's separated husband, would prepare to jump to his wife's defense in whatever way he could, even to the point of testifying as a witness in court. Although they haven't a close relationship yet, since all cases are solved by the famous Sleeping Kogoro, she should note that Conan has a keen sense of observation, complimenting him during a check out on the crime scene for their next trial. However, as always, Kogoro contradicts her, because for his ignorance all he observed were useless things.

Personality

She is rather rash and eager to proclaim a defendant's guilt even with scant evidence at hand. Whether this stems from her personal drive to defeat Eri or from her profession is as yet unrevealed. The first time they meet the two women know each other by reputation. Whenever a case brings them together as opponents in the courtroom, they deal with each other on a strictly professional basis despite their intense rivalry. Each of them respects the other for her skills, however, and whenever a case turns against her, she is fair enough to accept defeat and bring the true culprit to justice. Although some of these actions are dubious especially in the court, she remains professional and her relationship with Eri is cordial. She has a habit of twirling her pen around her finger when tense or in thought.

Appearance

She is a very attractive woman, fairly tall, with light skin tone, dark violet eyes and a semi-long black hairstyle. Her eyes were green at her first appearance. Furthermore, she is usually seen wearing business suits whenever performing in the court. She is right-handed. Her character design minorly changes for episode 489: no lipstick and slight hair alterations. Furthermore, her previous strong, capable, and domineering image is changed in a gentle and slightly sad side. However, in subsequent episodes, her original appearance has been restored.
